OpenOffice And MySQL
I'm having a problem creating a subform with two Parent Forms. I have products that I want to display, but limit them based on both CatagoryID and SupplierID. I have been sucessful in creating a Form for either the Supplier or the Catagory and Update the Product display properly, but when I try to do both it never works.
Accessing MySQL With OpenOffice
This question is about MySQL and how it can be accessed with OpenOffice (presumably the same issue would arise with MS Office, but I'm not sure about that). The problem I'm having is with the setup in OpenOffice. The database currently consists of a single table, located in c:MySQLdata. The database is CD_Collection; the table name is Album. There is no password associated with the database/table. (I'm just getting started, and wanted to keep it as simple as possible; I'll add the controls later.) OpenOffice is version 1.1.2 I'd like to be able to open a text file, and import or link the document to the database. In the Data Source Administration window: - At the General tab, I've changed the Database type to MYSQL. - at the MYSQL tab, I'm not sure which Type of Connection to check, so I've tried both "Use existing MyODBC data source" and "Use connector /J3 MYSQL JDBC driver class" - Under General (still at the MYSQL tab), the Data Source URL shows up as either "sdbc:mysql:odbc" or "sdbc:mysql:jdbc" depending on which Type of Connection I check, but I'm not sure what else should appear on the line (that I should type). I have typed in <localhost>:<3306> and a path to the database, but I still get the same error as follows when I move to the Tables tab - when I click on the Tables tab, I get the following error: "No connection could be established for the URL sdbc:mysql:jdbc:<localhost>:<3306>" then the path I've typed. I'm quite sure the information I've typed in the Data Source URL line is the problem, but none of the examples in OpenOffice Help lead me to a solution.
Anyone Using OpenOffice BASE As MySQL Frontend?
I recently saw OpenOffice's Base: "BASE enables you to manipulate database data seamlessly within OpenOffice.org. Create and modify tables, forms, queries, and reports, either using your own database or BASE’s own built-in HSQL database engine. BASE offers a choice of using Wizards, Design Views, or SQL Views for beginners, intermediate, and advanced users ... For more advanced requirements, BASE supports many popular databases database natively (Adabas D, ADO, Microsoft Access, MySQL)" I' am interested to hear anyone's experience with using this as a tool, development tool, or front-end builing tool for MySQL apps.
MyODBC To OpenOffice.org
I'm trying to connect OpenOffice.org to MySQL through MyODBC. MySQL is set up, but I'm having problems setting up MyODBC. I checked the documentation on the MySQL webpage, and tried to set it up that way, but OpenOffice.org can't find MyODBC. It can't find the libodbc.so.1. I tried to follow the set up PDF file on the OpenOffice.org webpage, but it switches between MyODBC and UnixODBC. I copied the libraries to /usr/lib, and made the link in /usr/local. I set up the obdb.ini in /usr/etc. Is there something I'm missing to set up the connection? Has anyone had luck with this?

I have a problem connecting to sql and can't find anything on the net to solve the problem. I have some sql databases running on a server. when I'm root on the server and I want to login to sql I do "mysql -ustudent -p -Dwordnet30 and it works fine. when I'm logged in with the user account on the server, i get this error message: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13) so with the same user name in mysql, i can log on when i'm root, but not when i'm the user. the grant table for the user looks like this: Code:
Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/home/data/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)
I just installed mysql on linux. If I open a terminal, su to root, then type "mysql", I am able to connect to the server and run my queries. If I exit out of su so that I am my own id (baisley) and type "mysql", I get this error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/home/data/mysql/mysql.sock' (13) Any idea why? mysql.sock has full permissions (read/write/execute), so it should be accessable by user baisley. If I am baisley and I run "mysql -u mysql" (as mysql is the user that the RPM set up), it will connect. What I would like to be able to do is run this without having to be user mysql all the time. How do I go about setting that up, or is it better to run all my queries/make tables as 1 user?

Warning: Mysql_query(): Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
I'm trying to connect to my MySQL database (sitehosted by GoDaddy) using PHP. I am having these errors and don't understand what they mean Warning: mysql_query(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/content/n/l/a/nladmin/html/v5.0_3/c_register.php on line 6 Warning: mysql_query(): A link to the server could not be established in /home/content/n/l/a/nladmin/html/v5.0_3/c_register.php on line 6 Notice: Query: SELECT * FROM types MySQL error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/content/n/l/a/nladmin/html/v5.0_3/c_register.php on line 6 here4 Warning: mysql_close(): no MySQL-Link resource supplied in /home/content/n/l/a/nladmin/html/v5.0_3/c_register.php on line 13 I've checked paths and connection settings and don't see any problems. My guess is now that the problem is coming from the opening and closing of the DB. my script, c_register.php uses a require_once('../mysql_connect.php') to open the connection to the database. But I also have a function definition in c_register.php that uses require_once('../mysql_connect.php') when called because it needs a connection to the DB. Here's a visual that might help:

How To Configure MySQL ODBC Driver To Connect To A Mysql Server On My Own Side Of The Router?
Using MS Access, I have attached to MySQL servers in other states and other countries on the other side of my router. But when I use the MySQL ODBC driver 3.51 to connect to a MySQL server on my own LAN, the driver tells me it cannot make the connection. Here are the ODBC driver connection parms: Data Source Name: (free field - name my "my linux box" will do nicely) Host/Server Name (or IP) - something like MSQLUserName@ServerName.net has worked fine for me in the past. Now I'm trying 192.168.1.106 Database Name - whatever, mysqldb works fine, any valid db User - root Password - myrootpass Port - 3306 has worked fine 4 me N the past. Dunno whether 2 use now SQL Command On Connect - haven't ever put anything here Perhaps there is some configuration in mysql user privilege for the mysqluser "root" that would prevent him from logging from a remote PC to the mysql server?
Table Rows Inserted By Embeddded MySQL Cannot Be Retrieved By MySQL Tcp Client
I have encountered a weird behavoir of embedded MySQL. Through a simple program I made (in Delphi 6), I can insert rows to a table through embedded MySQL and I can retrieve the rows from my program. But using mysql.exe which points to the same table (through 127.0.0.1, with the same basedir and datadir), I cannot see the rows I inserted using my embedded program. Another way around, the rows inserted by mysql.exe can be seen in my embedded program. But after a row is inserted by mysql.exe, the rows inserted by the embedde program are deleted (or cannot be queried). Can anybody explain why is this? Is there a way to fix it?

Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
I've installed MySQL-4.0.14 under RedHat 8, using both rpm's and compiling from source. When I try to run MySQL, I get the following error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' After much searching on Google, and reading many newsgroup threads on this error, as well as reading the manual, I'm still stumped. Most of the advice I've found suggests that the path to mysql.sock is wrong, which makes sense, but I don't have the file mysql.sock anywhere on my machine, so obviously I can't correct the path.
Can't Connect To Local MySQL Server Through Socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
I just got mysql 5, from mysql 3 or 4 (can't remember it's been so long). I can't seem to get a connection. I searched and found http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/unix-post-installation.html#starting-server Here is what it says to do, I don't know enough to be able to follow. Please advise: If you have problems starting the server, here are some things to try: * Check the error log to see why the server does not start. ME: How? Where? * Specify any special options needed by the storage engines you are using. * Make sure that the server knows where to find the data directory. ME: How? * Make sure that the server can access the data directory. The ownership and permissions of the data directory and its contents must be set such that the server can read and modify them.
MySQL-error : Can't Connect To Local Mysql Server Through Socket
On a freshly installed Fedora C3 (incl. webserver apache php mysql) i get the following problem when connecting to mysql through a browser (phpMyAdmin):: #2002 Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock On the website of MySQL this error is mentioned but I found no solution. In /var/log/messages the following log occurs : localhost kernel: audit(....): avc: denied {write}for pid=2458 exe=/usr/sbin/httpd name=mysql.sock dev=hda13 ... What I have tried : - mysql.sock is srwxrwxrwx, seems ok, but dont know what the s stands for - the dir /var/lib/mysql was drwxr-xr-x and I changed it to drwxrwxrwx : no effect - tried different version of phpMyAdmin : same error - installed my website and got the following error : No connection possible with database (in the next version I will improve the error-messages) - through commandline there is no problem in connecting to mysql (log in, create databases, inserts, deletes, uploading dumps, making dumps, ....) What is the solution or what else can I try ?

Remote Connection To MySQL DB Server From Client With No MySQL DB
I have MySQL server running on a Solaris machine. I have a Perl tool that is run on multiple operating systems (Linux, Solaris, MKS on windows, CYGWIN on windows). I would like to post to the MySQL database on the Solaris machine from this script when it is run on the different local clients. All these clients share a single network share (available via Samba on windows). Is there a Perl module that I can install in the network share that I can use to connect remotely to the server DB?
MySql: Select Database And Perform Mysql Dump
I currently have a batch file created using shell which runs mysqldump and saves the information to a file. However, I was wondering if there would be a way to use a recordset instead to select the database and initiate the mysql dump. Ideally this is what i would like to have: rs.Open "Use database mysqldump > C:", conn, 3, 3 Does anyone know if this is possible?

Question Regarding MySQL Interface Options And MySQL Vs MS Access
First, there are many applications available for interacting with MySQL. One of the things that frustrated me at first was the CLI. I know that it's the foundation and understanding syntax is critical to making it all work in the end, but when dealing with large datasets, I feel that a GUI makes life easier at times. So, I started out with phpMyAdmin, seems to be 'the' geek-preferred application. I also ran into a few shareware ones here and there as well as Navicat, and I recently learned that there are 2 apps from MySQL.com for administrating the DB and creating queries. In your experience, what seems to be the best MySQL interface application? At the moment I couldn't say *exactly* what I'm looking for, but more-or-less something that will ease the headache of creating queries and managing users, tables, etc. Question #2: I have been hired to be a Web Developer, Network Admin, and Database Administrator all-in-one. We have are a retail company selling peuter goods and have a product line-up of about 100 items. The President wants a robust database to deal with everything. Right now we use MS Excel for our needs. He says it's becoming cumbersome and wants to move on. I suggested MS Access because that's exactly what it's built for, companies that have been running in Excel and want more robust control over what they're doing. But the president keeps hearing this 'MySQL' buzzword and wants a MySQL database. Fine with me, I just know Access better, that's all. I've been cramming PHP & MySQL down as fast as I can and am starting to feel more familiar with both technologies. At the moment, I feel MySQL to be more of a headache (my fault I'm sure, I just don't know it yet) But For Example: To properly normalize a DB, I sometimes have to break a table into 3 tables. The first and second are no problem, but the third 'association' table is annoying (at least doing it CLI or phpMyAdmin). See, Access, you just make 2 tables and graphically set associations very easily. So, from what you know of MySQL, do you think it would be still superior to Access seeing as we want to integrate it into osCommerce eventually and possibly some of their user contributions?
Using MySQL 3.23 Driver With MySQL 4 (and Borland DbExpress Drivers)
I've been playing with the Borland dbExpress Drivers, and it would appear that Borland only have beta drivers for MySQL 4.x.x However it would also appear to be possible to access a MySQL v 4.x.x database using the 3.23 client libraries (i.e just get libmysql.dll from 3.23) can here see any problems in doing this? The only ones I can see is we'll loose some features such as the ability to use encrypted SSL connections.
Import Dump From Unix Mysql To Windows Mysql
I am trying to load a dump from a MySQL database on my ISP's server to my development environment on a Win 2K machine (running MySQL). When I run the mysql command to run the load script, MySQL gives the following complaint: "ERROR 1064 at line 21: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual t hat corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'D EFAULT CHARSET=latin1' at line 7" The dump from the ISP's server is created using mysqldump. The ISP is running MySQL 4.1.20. My development environment is MySQL 4.0.26. I have no problem loading dumps made from my development environment usng phpmyadmin.

Restore Mysql Databases From /var/lib/mysql/user_database/ Files Only?
I recently had a harddrive failure and luckliy I can still access certain directories on this failed drive. I can still access the /var/lib/mysql/ directory which holds all the users databases and have backed all these up separately using tar. Now what I need to know is how do you restore these database files to another server? I tried simply untar'ing one of these to the new servers /var/lib/mysql/ direcotry and it stuffed Mysql up - it went offline. I had to get a cpanel tech to bring Mysql back online.
Another JOIN Problem After MySQL 3 -> MySQL 5 Upgrade
I have inherited a query that works perfectly on MySQL 3/4 but not 5. I didn't write it and very little experience with joins.

Different Results In Mysql & Mysql Query Browser?
I've come across an extremely strange problem. The exact same query in both mysql command line client, and mysql query browser gives entirely different results. I was hoping someone out there could shed some light. Ok, the query (I've stripped it bare, the real query is a bit more complex)... Each person in the people table has an associated 'place', which is an integer that maps onto a suburb in the suburbs table. The 'place' CAN be NULL. so, for all intensive purposes, the schema is roughly:
MySQL AB: MySQL - Use A Out Parameter In An Insert Into Statement
I have a stored procedure that inserts a new passenger into a database. The fields are name and email. The passengerID is a auto increment. The database I am using is mySQL.

MySql Problem With Unicode, MySql Connector/Net And C#
I have a problem regarding unicode characters and MySql. I am using MySql 4.1 and MySql Connector/NET together with C#. My question is whether I' am making a silly mistake (or not), by not being able to store unicode characters in a simple table. The database I have created is supposed to be in unicode: 'CREATE DATABASE test CHARACTER SET utf8'. Now, connecting from C#, i am trying to write into a simple table, with one column, the value 'u0120u0121u0125u0411' but when I am retrieving the value from the table, '????' is returned as a result. I don't know if its relevant, but i have checked that the server and connection are using unicode encoding: SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set_server' which returns 'utf8' as a result. also: SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set_connection' returns 'utf8' as a result.
Execute Mysql Command On Mysql 4.1 On Linux
I setup Mysql 4.1 on a linux box. But when I type 'mysq', I get this following error: # mysql ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) even if I specify user name and password, like this mysql --user=root --password= but that still does not work. I was able to connect to that server using MSQL administrator with 'root' and no password. But when I telnet to that box and type 'mysql' and the xterm, I get this 'access denied' message.
Transfer Web MYSQL Entries To Local Mysql
I've got this online mysql database that stores form entries. I wanna transfer any new entries it receives to a local sql database on a computer.

How To Detect If A MySQL Db Table Exists In MySQL 4.1+
$sql = "SELECT IF((SHOW TABLES LIKE '$subselectTableName'), count(*), NULL) AS numRows FROM $subselectTableName"; I am trying to write a SQL statement that will tell me if a table exists or not, this is because PHP will throw Fatal Errors and halt all programming if the table does not exist that I attempt to query. How do you write an elegant MySQL 4.1+ statement to detect if a table exists or not?
